Saturday night I got the opportunity to go to an opera. It was my second choice for a cultural event my program provides tickets for. I saw “Tosca” which was in Italian but had German subtitles on a screen over the stage. It was 2 ½ hours… However, I paid enough attention to figure out the general story line. The opera singers were amazing and at times I had to make myself realize that they were REALLY singing. It’s almost unreal how long they can keep a note. The live orchestra was also really enjoyable to watch as well, especially when I found myself lost!
